Voting lasts a week, anyone can vote but you must have heard both albums.

Division 1:

Yo La Tengo - I Can Hear The Heart Beating As One vs
Eurythmics - Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)

Division 2:

Steely Dan - Countdown To Ecstasy vs
Serge Gainsbourg - Initials B.B.

Division 3:

Wilco - Summereeth vs
Pere Ubu - Dub Housing

Division 4:

The Heartbreakers - L.A.M.F. vs
Julee Cruise - Floating Into The Night

My vote:

Pere Ubu - Dub Housing
Wilco - Summerteeth
Yo La Tengo - I Can Hear The Heart Beating As One
Serge Gainsbourg - Initials B.B.
Eurythmics - Sweet Dreams
Julee Cruise - Floating Into The Night
Steely Dan - Countdown To Ecstasy
The Heartbreakers - L.A.M.F.

What I love about this game is that a lot of people make a lot of new discoveries and a lot of overlooked gems are found. The problem is that it's hard to get people to vote for albums they just discovered over albums they've liked for years, so all the ones people already like about tend to do the best. There's really no way to prevent that except to sculpt the eligibility around keeping the already-favorites out, but that's hard to do without being overly complicated about it. If this game runs a third time maybe some better heuristic can be found.

1. Serge Gainsbourg - Initials B.B.
2. Julee Cruise - Floating Into The Night
3. Steely Dan - Countdown To Ecstasy
4. Yo La Tengo - I Can Hear The Heart Beating As One
5. Wilco - Summerteeth
6. Pere Ubu - Dub Housing
7. Eurythmics - Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)
8. The Heartbreakers - L.A.M.F.

2-7 are all pretty closely bunched together.

Julee Cruise's album is one of the album I disliked the most (and it might only be thanks to George Harrison that it's not THE worst in my book). And it already has eliminated 2 of my picks...

Division 1:
Yo La Tengo - I Can Hear The Heart Beating As One vs
WINNER Eurythmics - Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)
I found pleasure to listen this album years after years.

Division 2:
Steely Dan - Countdown To Ecstasy vs
WINNER Serge Gainsbourg - Initials B.B.
Of course, but Steely Dan is great.

Division 3:
WINNER Wilco - Summereeth vs
Pere Ubu - Dub Housing
This week is Wilco my winner but Pere Ubu is great too.

Division 1: Yo La Tengo - I Can Hear The Heart Beating As One

Forgot to vote,but it wouldn't have made a difference anyway to any of the matches. The only loser I would have voted for was Steely Dan...

Yo La Tengo is a dark horse to win the tournament at this point. Nothing has really come close so far, and it should be able to beat the Morricone/Fleetwood Mac winner.

The Heartbreakers album making it this far is a huge surprise (especially since Faust should have knocked them out in round 1--and almost did).

I'd say Serge Gainsbourg is the dark horse. He narrowly got through The Blue Nile in the first round, but since then he's won 7-1, 7-2, ad 9-4.

If Yo La Tengo meets Serge in the semifinals it will be a brutal match.
